Apple Releases iOS 10, But Don’t Update Right Now

As promised, Apple on Tuesday released iOS 10 to users worldwide. The latest major update contains a number of noticeable design changes, new features, and security enhancements for compatible iPhones and iPads.

Below you can take a look at the main fields of improvements found in iOS 10.

• Messaging

Apple added new features to Messages (Expressive Messaging, iMessage apps, and the App Store for iMessage etc.)

• Siri

From now on, Siri can work with third-party apps offering a better user experience.

New design and personalized music recommendations are now available for all iOS 10 users.

• Apple News

This section also contains new design and usability improvements.

• Experience

Such features as Raise to Wake, rich notifications as well as extensive use of 3D Touch improve user experience.

• Other improvements and Accessibility features

If you have a compatible device, you can upgrade to iOS 10 right now using the Software Update mechanism.

Keep in mind, though, that according to a growing number of users, iOS 10 bricks some iPhones and iPads. If you don’t know whether you need the update or not, I recommend to stay away from it right now. Apple will most likely release an updated version with a bug fix soon.
